That gives me more understanding, Donna, thank you, that was something I
didn't know. It's just after all this time, and it seems so tremendous being
able to read cooking directions with the bar codes which is really great, I
started thinking how something was so missing, and that was the experation
dates. Thanks again.

Also expiration dates are stamped on products not printed. There is times in
which the ink smears, the writing has faded. Until it is mandated that
expiration dates be placed on an item, on the same spot for all products & a
better expiration date is adopted, there is no way for a blind person to be
able to read the expiration dates on products.

Sadly, I do not think you will ever see expiration dates in barcones.
Barcodes identify the general product, not that individual package. But
you would probably have to contact the manufacturer to find out if
something could be done. According to my wife, there is little consistancy
of placement of expiration dates and it is hard for even sighted people to
find them.

I do hope supersense and other ocr apps eventually can read experation

technical reason why experation dates can't be read, but I hope that's
something that can be worked out.

Hi all,
I also wanted to elaborate on Supersense a bit. We're working on
adding cooking directions, since that is a crucial set of information
that can be obtained with a little cross-research after identifying a
barcode.
I've also noticed that from my personal experience, Supersense tends
to recognize more products in my pantry than the other apps I've
tried.

Will Seeing AI give you directions for cooking in addition to just
identifying the product? This is a feature I heavily use on my
barcode

Seeing A I has improved their bar code scanner, and it is quite good.
It is also free.
Super
Sense is also pretty good, but it is a paid app.
